      The mongo shell will always produce the same set of random numbers if not seeded.

      $ ~/mongodb/3.1.7/mongo --nodb
      MongoDB shell version: 3.1.7
      > Random.randInt(1000000)
      242578
      > ^C
      bye
      $ ~/mongodb/3.1.7/mongo --nodb
      MongoDB shell version: 3.1.7
      > Random.randInt(1000000)
      242578
